MANILA, Philippines - It’s one thing to possess a formidable body. But it’s an altogether greater affair to have true substance.
Bench Body’s newest endorser, model Borgy Manotoc, exemplifies just that. Often identified with the country’s former head of state, Borgy comes into his own as the epitome of a well-rounded young man, with chiseled good looks, an eloquent demeanor, a keen sense of style and an enviable bod to match. It is these qualities that make him the perfect endorser for Bench Body. Indeed, Borgy represents the crème de la crème of hot young Manila. Although at this point, the young man has yet to dabble in showbiz, his presence in both the most happening clubs as well as the independent haunts of this generation’s underground scene cement his buzzed-about status. Whether taking in the local scene, or jetting off to overseas destinations, Borgy beams with a natural curiosity for popular culture.
Just as Borgy’s personal interests are as clued in as his clothing choices, his choice of innerwear is just as spot-on. Be it logo briefs or boxers, traditional whites or sexy blacks, the cheekily star-adorned or the basic boy shorts, Borgy turns to Bench Body.
Such are the different facets embodied in the ad campaign by ace lensman Mark Nicdao and styled by Noel Manapat, shot against the worn concrete of Rizal Stadium — a perfect foil to the model’s strong, solid, not to mention active, persona.
